Stardust Explores Earth's Wonders Paperback: Stardust Explores Earth's Wonders brings back Stardust, the wide-eyed, science-loving heroine of the series. The book also introduces a new character, her little brother Vincent, who learns an exciting fact: every living thing on Earth is related! Addressing scientific concepts such as plate tectonics, fossil records, and evolution in a simple and understandable manner, Stardust explains to Vincent how all life on Earth -- including people -- evolved from earlier life forms, and how we are able to know this today.

Stardust Explores the Solar System Paperback: Stardust Explores the Solar System begins with the Big Bang, explains the formation of the Sun and the planets, then takes children on an exciting tour through our Solar System!

Stardust Explores Earth's Wonders brings back Stardust, the wide-eyed, science-loving heroine of the series.

Like the first two books in the Stardust series, Stardust Explores Earth's Wonders uses simple, charming stories and beautiful artwork to inspire curiosity about the world and universe. At the same time, it teaches the scientific method and demonstrates the importance of evidence-based reasoning, using accessible real-world examples.

For young readers, Elle the Humanist is a delightful introduction to humanist values celebrating the virtue of kindness. For grownups, Elle invites us to reflect on this simple recipe for making the world a better place—and how universal humanist ideals have been borrowed by so many religious faiths.”
Robyn E. Blumner, President and CEO, Center for Inquiry

We are stardust: you and me, Lucy and Tiktaalik, dinosaurs, bacteria and redwood trees. Let Stardust tell you all about it.
Richard Dawkins, Author The Greatest Show on Earth, The Selfish Gene, and The God Delusion

Whimsical, clever, and surprisingly profound, Bailey Harris writes with the wisdom of a scholar yet never betrays her wide-eyed wonder. My Name is Stardust offers depth and beauty to curious kids and grown-ups alike who dare to ask brave questions about our place in the cosmos.
Cara Santa Maria, Creator and Host of Talk Nerdy with Cara Santa Maria, co-host of The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe

This is a book of good thinking about important things. One of the important features of this book is that it tries to speak to everyone, no matter what they believe.
Daniel Dennett, University Professor of Philosophy Tufts University, author of Breaking the Spell

In simple text and beautiful illustrations, My Name is Stardust elegantly captures what Neil DeGrasse Tyson called “the most astounding fact” — that we are literally stardust, and that this connects us to everything that ever was and ever will be. A captivating addition to the literature of science and wonder for the youngest minds.
Dale McGowan, author of Parenting Beyond Belief and Raising Freethinkers

Humanism is our planet's best hope for increasing justice, fairness, and ethical living. Elle's clear, accessible introduction to humanism is perfect for budding freethinkers or any young person who wants to understand how to live well beyond the confines of religious dogma. --
Phil Zuckerman, Ph.D., author of What It Means to be Moral and Living the Secular Life

Curiosity about a few universal questions lies at the base of the uniquely human exploration of the cosmos which we call science. Who am I? Where did I come from? My Name Is Stardust captures the excitement of its young author’s exploration of her world and its origins.
Eric Meikle, Former Education Project Director at the National Center for Science Education

Stardust Explores Earth’s Wonders is a marvel! I am giving a copy to each of my kids and grandkids so they will know who their real ancestors are.
